Edward's POV

Bella hadn't left her room for days. I was starting to think that maybe telling her that Quil killed Charlie was a bad move. However since I did she seems to love me again. Her lips are softer than I remember and her face was more beautiful than I could ever even imagine. It seems like she never left me for someone else, only that she was away for a little time.

When I kiss her there is always a little flicker of indecision that resides in her eyes for a moment. As though she hasn't completely forgotten about the mutt, like she feels that she's betraying him.

She just needs time, Tianna has told me over and over as I pace in the kitchen in the depth of night aggravated and confused about why she stays locked in her room when she could be with me exploring our new home. Tianna has become like a sister to me, she could never take the place of Alice nor Rosalie but she was like a sibling and I loved her for that.

I sometimes wonder where my old family had moved to after I had told them of my plans. They had all yelled and protested trying to get me to leave my only true love alone to be with another but I didn't give in. The decided to let me do whatever I would like but they wouldn't help me or be around to see it occur. They had all left in the night when I had gone to find Gianna, when I had returned home the house was deserted.

Gianna and I had the house to ourselves for a day before Furro and Tianna showed up. I laughed introducing them, Tianna meet Gianna, Gianna, Tianna. I hadn't even thought about that when I had asked for both of their help. Furro left shortly after to attend to the castle we would all stay in when Bella got settled in.

I am still astonished by Tianna's power; the humanness that radiates off of her makes it hard for me to think of her as a vampire, she didn't have the usual scent or eating habits, things only a powerful vampire possessed. Her shocking green eyes that were drowned in tears when Furro left amazed me. Actual tears flowed down her cheeks as he left. The powers came in handy at La Push which is why I asked for her assistance in exchange for teaching Furro my ways.

She crept up the side of the dog's house and left Bella's notes without leaving a trail of scent. I was able to keep an eye on Bella without being on La Push land, making sure that the mutt didn't do anything to her.

Gianna on the other hand had a seemingly useless power but only assisted me because I had gone to the Volturi found out that she had indeed been changed and she asked to leave with me. She stayed only hours after I left for the airport in Italy, and I met her at the airport in Seattle filling her in on my plan as we ran to Forks.

Tianna's beauty was non-surpassed which is what drew me to her the first time we met when my family and I lived in Maine. She stayed with us for a short while when she was newly changed; Carlisle was astounded by her powers and was dearly upset when Furro had come for her. When he explained that he was the one who changed Tianna when she had cut herself on an open ended pipe right in front of him and had to leave to create a murder scene. When he came back Tianna was gone.

I was glad that Tianna and I had stayed in touch and was thrilled when I received a reply to my letter saying that she would come help me. For she knew the troubles and hardships of love. Furro and Tianna had had a rocky relationship the first few years. Tianna hadn't been able to accept what he did to her and even when Furro insisted she stay put she would run, leaving him to follow after her until one day she admitted that she had fallen in love with her murderer.

The only condition in aiding me was that she wanted me to teach Furro how to feed from animals. That she couldn't stand him feeding off of what she rightfully was. I gleefully accepted the challenge and plan to start teaching as soon as he and Gianna return from their excursion leading the dogs around.

I took a deep breath and ran my fingers threw my hair before opening Bella's door.

There was my angel lying on the couch a burgundy blanket draped over her matching the velvet on the couch. Her eyes were open and staring at something at the other side of the room. She didn't move when I entered and only shifted her eyes to mine when I called her name. She looked so worn, so tired even when she slept more than half the day.

Her eyes showed soft love as she stared at me. But the emotion was coated with her exhaustion and sadness. I walked to the couch and picked her up covering her with the blanket a cradle her to my chest. She felt like a small child in my arms. Her weight to me no more than a two year old.

She let her head rest on my shoulder and I sat back down on the couch. "Bella I love you," I whispered to her. A small smile graced her face and she seemed to try and respond but couldn't. She sighed and nodded sadly.

"Do you love me Bella?" I didn't want to force her to say it but I couldn't stand not being able to remember what it was like to hear those words dance over her lips.

"Yes," she said softly. I wouldn't have caught it without my enhanced hearing. I smiled lightly accepting her response in exchange for silence.

"Do you feel okay today?" I asked shifting her so that she lay stomach down on top of me. Her leg were over mine and I let one of hers slip between them, intertwining ourselves.

I took a deep breath readying herself to talk. "Yeah, I feel okay, just really tired." She smiled slightly again and turned her head into my neck.

"Did you not sleep well last night?" I asked ready to do anything to make her more comfortable.

"I just have nightmares. I wake up a lot." I felt like crying. Why couldn't things just go back to the way they were before all of this happened? Why couldn't she love me like she used to? Why couldn't we just be together without anything else happening? Oh yeah, because I'm a vampire who's madly in love with a frail human girl that happens to be a danger magnet and might still be in love with my mortal enemy. Wow, life sucks.

Bella's POV

"I just have nightmares. I wake up a lot." I admitted. The sentence made the rush of terrifying pictures fly through my mind. I closed my eyes and wished I could just go to sleep without ever dreaming. That I could just sleep and never wake up. Right, that's death. I thought to myself as Edward's soothing voice started humming my lullaby into my ear. The notes in the music poured through me. I concentrated only on the sounds as it rocked me to sleep.

Charlie's face flashed into my mind as I was about to fall into a deep sleep. Then Quil's face, the expression that tore through me. His hazel eyes bore into mine from behind my eyelids. Love inhabited every inch of his face. It was the look he gave me when we had sat under the stars eating an amazing meal on the beach. A pain shot through my heart as the scene between Edward and Quil played for me. Only this time it was Quil and Charlie and within the first moments Charlie fell, blood seeping out everywhere until eventually his head lulled over and his kind eyes met mine. "I love you honey," he mouthed right before Quil jumped on his again.

"Bella? Bella! Wake up!" A voice called from far away. I struggled to listen to it as I watched Quil stand in his human form covered in blood.

"Hi Bells," he called. Tears poured from my eyes as I held my hands out in front of me shielding me from the piercing stare he provided.

"No, please!" I screamed as he progressed towards me.

"Bells? I love you!" he cried dropping to his knees. "Don't you love me anymore?!" he screamed. His face looked pained. I nodded through my tears and reached towards him.

The expression that covered his face broke my heart. He looked as if I had completely refused him. Suddenly his eyes grew angry and he stood up walking away,

"I do love you!" I screamed at him. I tried to walk but instead I fell to knees. "Stop!" I yelled hoping that he would come back to me.

"BELLA!" Edward screamed. My eyes shot open and I noticed that he was standing with me in his arms. His face was distressed and he closed his eyes and took a deep breath hugging me to him. "Are you alright?" he asked.

I merely nodded, shaking from the dream that had plagued me every night since I found out that Charlie was gone.

"Oh Bella. You should have told me it was that bad." I didn't respond and rested against his chest still shaking violently. "You kept screaming and crying and you wouldn't wake up!" he rattled on.

I noticed the drying tears on my face and wiped them away. "I'm sorry." I whispered embarrassed that he had to be here for it.

"Don't ever be sorry Bella. I love you. Don't be sorry." He cooed into my hair.

"I love you to," I muttered. A slight pain shot through my heart. Did I love him? Yes I loved him. But I loved Quil to. How could I love both? Edward had killed Jacob but Quil killed Charlie. How am I supposed to deal with it all. Maybe I should just leave. Live alone so I can't hurt anyone ever.

Oh Quil. How could you. Just come get me so I don't have to lie anymore. Tell myself everything will be okay soon. I can't anymore. Come get me so I can say goodbye.

I pushed out of Edward's arms and started walking to the bathroom. "Bella!" Edward gasped. I turned around startled.

"What?" he was at my side instantly lifting my shirt in the back. It had been folded over slightly from his grasp.

"Who did this to you!" He asked urgently. I was confused for a moment but realization hit me as I reached back feeling the raised scar on my back.

"I- I don't know." I admitted. Edward turned me around by my shoulders.

"Did the dog!" He yelled. His voice was enraged. I shook my head vehemently.

"NO!" I spat out disgusted he thought Quil would do that.

"Then who!" he screamed. I took a deep breath and explained what happened from when he left on the beach to when I had woken up and passed out again.

He listened intently. At the end of my story his eyes were wide. "What?" I asked putting my hand on the side of his face.

"Furro," he muttered looking away. Furro? Who is Furro?! "Oh, Tianna." He sighed rubbing his hand over his eyes.

"What are you talking about?!" I asked more confused than ever.

"Furro went to get you. He can sense emotion. Sort of like Jasper but he can't change them." Edward explained. I still didn't understand. "He saw you were in distress and he thought it was from Quil, so he left to go find you." I was trying to understand but I couldn't figure out what it had to do with my scar. "Tianna left. She told me that Furro was wrong that you were worried about Quil not distressed. They said they had a fight that Furro picked you up but Tianna got there and ripped you from his grasp. They said you got a little hurt, but, but this," he ran his finger over the length of my scar. "this is more than I even imagined. I'm sorry Bella!" He pulled me into his chest.

"Why did they take me away from Quil? I fell asleep next to him but when I woke up-" Edward interrupted, his face showed disgust from what I had said.

"Tianna ran with you. She was trying to get you away from Furro. He gets really angry really fast. He was upset that Tianna wouldn't let him take you. She said it wasn't the right time. That you weren't ready. She said that she would know from experience that you weren't ready to love someone again." If he could cry I think tears would have streamed down Edward's face. "I love you so much Bella! You don't understand how hard it was for me to know you were with someone else." My heart broke again.

"Edward, you killed Jacob," I shook my head looking at the ground. Tears welled in my eyes. "You killed my best friend, I can't forget that. I can't forgive that." My eyes stayed on the floor. "It doesn't matter if he tried to kidnap me or whatever you said he did. He was my best friend. I would have come back to you. I would have done anything to come back to you. I loved you." His body stiffened with my last sentence.

"You- you," he cleared his throat a little. "you don't love me now." He stated. It wasn't a question.

"I do love you Edward. But I can't forget what you did." His grip on my waist loosened.

"Bella I'm sorry, I just couldn't stand having Jacob take you. I couldn't take it knowing he could take you." I nodded.

"I know Edward. I just want things to go back." I whispered laying my head against him.

"Bella?" Edward's voice sang sadly.

"Yes?"

"Do you love Quil?" Tears poured down my cheeks again. I nodded a little.

"He helped me, he showed me forgiveness and love when I couldn't even take my mind off of the fact that I had been the cause of Jake's death." I felt Edward holding his breath.

"Okay," he said before releasing me and walking towards my door.

"Edward?" I asked trailing behind him for a couple steps. He didn't answer he merely walked out of the room securing the door behind him. I stood in one place until I heard a little click of the lock.

I ran to the door to find out the handle was locked from the outside. I turned around so my back rested on the door and slid down to the floor. Something told me I had said too much.
